Ian Bremmer shares his insights on global politics this week on World In :60.

What do you expect to come from Biden's Israel visit?

A few things. First of all, I can't imagine the Israelis engaging in ground occupation of Gaza before he shows up or while he's there. So give us a couple more days for diplomacy. That's really important. Secondly, pushing really hard on opening humanitarian aid to get into Gaza, also critical both in terms of reducing the catastrophe that is going to be wrought on the Palestinian citizenry, civilians living there and also potentially getting some of the hostages freed. That is possible once humanitarian aid comes in those conversations happening with the Qataris.

Not the best idea in this environment.
